Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote approximately 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and various podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired significant medical instruction with an attention to on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address problems ranging from common problems for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which furnish them the practical experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid numerous issues which the feet typically encounter.
